Saturday Scouting is back, focusing on Oklahoma defensive tackle David Stone. Stone is a 2027 draft-eligible prospect, and could be on the Bucs’ radar as the team might want to continue to draft young, impact players along the defensive line. I previously profiled an interior defensive lineman in A’Mauri Washington out of Oregon, and had … Read more
Welcome back to Saturday Scouting (back on a Saturday!). One of the frustrating things about living outside of the Tampa market is that I can’t attend training camp nearly as often as I would like. And so, like many of you I rely on the fantastic reporting of my colleagues at Pewter Report and elsewhere … Read more
In last week’s Saturday Scouting, I looked at one of the more high-profile guards who may be available in the 2027 NFL Draft. Sticking with that position group, I wanted to look at the top-rated guard headed into the 2026 collegiate season. I found the hype around Iowa offensive guard Kade Pieper to be real … Read more

The Bucs added to the front seven on Day 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft, drafting talented Miami edge rusher Rueben Bain Jr. At defensive tackle, Tampa Bay could stand to add one more reinforcement. With star nose tackle Vita Vea entering a contract year, the recent departures of fellow defensive tackles/ends Greg Gaines and … Read more
One area of considerable focus for the Bucs this year has been addressing a front seven that generated just 37 sacks last year. Could Tampa Bay talk itself into taking another edge rusher, even after taking Rueben Bain Jr. on Thursday night? After adding Bain and welcoming Al-Quadin Muhammad this offseason, the outside pass rush … Read more
The NFL Draft is less than a week away! And the Bucs are sure to add at least one edge rusher to their roster via the draft process. The bulk of my draft prep this draft season has been on linebackers and the edge rushers that are most likely to go early in the draft. … Read more

And while they added a depth signing in Al-Quadin Muhammad, the team still needs a strong running mate opposite outside linebacker Yaya Diaby.
